How much money do I need to retire early with the 4 percent rule?

To retire early, you need 25 times your annual expenses invested. This allows you to safely withdraw 4% of your total invested portfolio every year without running out of money, giving you a steady passive income.

Does this calculator show inflation adjusted return?

Yes, our tool includes an inflation reality check that reduces your final future value to show its true purchasing power in today's dollars, protecting your retirement savings.

Is compound interest better than simple interest?

Yes. Compound interest pays you on your original deposits and the interest you have already earned, creating exponential wealth growth.

How to Calculate Compound Interest with Monthly Contributions

Will inflation destroy my retirement savings?

This is our special market-gap feature. Other calculators tell you that you will have $2 Million in 30 years. But because of inflation, things will cost a lot more in 30 years! Our calculator automatically discounts your final number by the inflation rate (usually 3%). This shows you the True Purchasing Power of your money in today's dollars so you know exactly what your savings are actually worth.

The Global Tax Simulator

Most calculators show you a massive pre-tax number, leaving you shocked when you cash out. Our Global Capital Gains Tax Simulator automatically estimates the tax you will owe on your profits based on your global currency region (US, UK, Europe, India, etc.), showing you your true Net After-Tax Wealth.

How to live off passive income from stocks

The goal of investing is to eventually quit your job. Our tool calculates exactly how much money you can safely withdraw from your investments every single month, forever, without ever running out of money. This gives you a clear roadmap to living completely off of passive income from your stock portfolio.

The Magic of Compound Interest

Albert Einstein called compound interest the "Eighth Wonder of the World." When your money earns interest, that interest gets added to your total. Then, your interest starts earning its own interest! Over 20 or 30 years, this causes your monthly contributions to snowball into massive wealth.

Frequently Asked Questions

To retire early, you need a portfolio size where 4% of the total equals your yearly living expenses. For example, if you want $40,000 a year in passive income, you need $1,000,000 invested ($1,000,000 x 0.04 = $40,000). Use our calculator above to find out exactly when you will hit your goal!

Yes! Our unique inflation reality check automatically subtracts the inflation rate from your final investment growth. This ensures that the massive number you see at the end is actually shown in today's true purchasing power, so you don't get a false sense of security.

Yes, much better! Simple interest only pays you on the money you deposited. Compound interest pays you on your deposits AND on the interest you already earned. Over time, compound interest grows much faster, doing the heavy lifting to build your wealth automatically.
